Shark Cartilage
JOINT HEALTH
It is estimated that over 50 million Americans suffer from osteo-arthritis. Popular treatments for this disabling condition relieve pain but do nothing about the cause. Glucosamine is a natural occurring nutrient in the body which is the foundation for replacing cartilage in the joints as it wears away. Unfortunately, as we get older, the body does not produce as much glucosamine as is disappearing because of wear. Taking glucosamine by mouth has been proven to rebuild the cartilage, thus removing much of the cause of pain in osteo-arthritis. Since it is natural in the body, there have been no side effects reported and no contra-indications. It is the most commonly prescribed treatment for arthritis in Europe. Chondroitin, manganese and MSM have also been beneficial to the replacement of cartilage and support of the synovial fluid. Boswellia, vitamin C and bromelain relieve discomfort because of their anti-inflammatory action.
